I feel a little intimidated by the number of members, but of course this is the WWW. I'm from Spokane, WA. USA. I am a woodworker by hobby, 30+ years of experience. I now have enough confidence in my work to offer it to the public. I want to build a web site to display, but being just a novice to computers and no knowledge at all to web building I am looking for ideas of where to start. Nothing big, definately not complicated. I would like to start with a cookie cutter type program, but something that I can build on and have it look presentable. Thanks any and all...

Hi ya, Gregory, everyone has to start somewhere. Your best bet before you start your page is to check some of our beginner resouce post. And as you go along ask lots of questions. JacobHaug knows all the answers.

If you just want a site and don't really care if it looks like crap in some browser then just grab a copy of Dreamweaver, get in Design view and start filling that page

Hey Gregory.

Don't feel intimidated by the number of members - we're quite nice people (apart from Ryan - he's a bit scary)

If you need any help just ask away and if you're unsure where to post something go to the cafe
